And how would you define what is a boy book from what you define as a girl book? I've never heard of such a distinction. Hmm, while we're at it, are there books which are heterosexual versus homosexual? This could turn into a rather enlightening discussion!

I think there may be SOME agreement on "boy books" "chic flicks" and the like....I usually don't like these kinds of categories but in this instance I think it can be helpful...not that women like silly, frilly books and men like war books, but if someone tells me a book is full of war and spy stuff, I kinda think of that as a boy book in the most general sense. Andif its's about a woman dealing with breast cancer it tends to be a girl book...
for ex I just say Minority Report - excellent movie but definitely a masculine type of movie in my view...
